As I lie here in bed, your smile fills my head
And I'm using this pen to talk to you, from a southern way
It's been weeks since I've seen you last
The time away from you ain't moving too fast

Wishing my summer away just to see you again

I'm there by your side, lookin in your eyes
Seeing you with me, what else could there be?
If I could get away I'd be there today
You'd be wearing that smile
Haven't see you for a while

I wake up everyday, go through the same routine
Go to work, come home, what does it all really mean?
Check the mail just hoping to find,
another note from you could ease my mind
It's 5:15; I can picture you driving home from you same old scene
In five you'll hear the phone ringing, have to settle for talking again

I can picture you now, you're standing outside your house
The breeze is blowing off your northern shore
Now I'm loving you more
I long for the days when there are no goodbyes
Wish I could see you, wipe the tears from your eyes
Tell you everything's all right, lay you down
Say to you goodnight
